Great Work-life Balance, Lazy Teams
Great Work-life Balance, Lazy Teams
I used to work at Microsoft as an SDE intern. I like the work-life balance culture here. For new grads, the software development process led by a big company and how to solve problems as a junior engineer should be considered. That's why I chose to enter a big company after graduation.
For some workaholics, some teams at Microsoft may make you feel too lazy. The culture here is work-life balance. Sometimes we may have a lot of meetings discussing small features.
I do like the working style here. But it would be better if there were fewer meetings and more coding.
